Anyone else constantly dream of leaving a regular job to start a business?

[Alavanille]

I keep thinking about this but not sure I actually have any skills.
Like many people I dream of running a cafe or coffee shop, maybe combined with a gift shop or something well-being related.
its a pipe dream I know, I need to earn a living and most businesses aren’t successful.
But then I think, some people do it…. And make a success of it.

Yep….theres a building opposite my bus top, been vacant for about 2 years and I always stare at thinking what business I can host….most recent thoughts would be a mac and cheese bar. I don’t even like mac and cheese but I know it’s a firm fave of most people and so a good business opportunity, only way I’d be able to do this is if I came into some money.

No, I like my job, earn a decent wage, get generous holiday leave, a good amount paid dependants leave (15 days per year of which I’ve used 7 days in 4 years but nice to know it’s there!), a 35 hour working week, generous expenses if I ever have to work away and my own time is exactly that. Plus my pension is really good.
I’m not especially ambitious or creative so being a paid employee suits me down to the ground.
Fair play to anyone who gets a business up and running, dh did it 20 years ago and is so happy doing what he does. It was hard at the beginning for so many reasons but he wasn’t built to be an employee!

Im in a badly paid job I no longer enjoy. Im not qualified to do anything and its difficult to find another job that I'm likely to enjoy any more than my current role.

@Alavanille I’m a dog walker primarily but also do house sitting, cat/small animal visits and equestrian and farm care as well.
